[QUOTE="davkrat, post: 1076682, member: 6452"] When I got the 600 it was the best I could afford and I figured it would be all I ever needed as I don't intend to shoot game past 600. You quickly learn that the max yardage is only in PERFECT conditions and targets. The biggest problem though is that if an animal is beyond max range you have no clue how far you have to move up to be in reasonable range. I blew it on a buck about 6 years ago because of that. I blew past the ridge that would have given me a 400 yard shot and wound up spooking them. My excited haste had something to do with it too! Being able to range to 1000 somewhat reliably is a great improvement. I would love to drop several grand on combo bino/laser units but I have better ways to spend that kind of money right now. For out to 600 yard shooting I think these are a great option. [/QUOTE]
